Later this summer, the team will practice dismantling and re-assembling the house in preparation for the Solar Decathalon competition, which will be held in October in Irvine, Calif.

The Engineering Library will be open extra hours (10am-10pm Sunday) for study time. Best of luck with your finals! Coming Spring quarter we'll have a new website, you can preview it here: http://library.stanford.edu/englib.

Confirmation came today that the particle discovered last year IS the Higgs boson. "The preliminary results with the full 2012 data set are magnificent and to me it is clear that we are dealing with a Higgs boson though we still have a long way to go to know what kind of Higgs boson it is," said CMS spokesperson Joe Incandela.

The Stanford School of Engineering and the National Academy of Engineering are co-hosting a panel discussion on Tuesday, March 5 from 4 - 6 p.m. on the timely topic of online learning. The event is open to the public as part of the regional symposium for the National Academy of Engineering (NAE).

This event will be held in the Mackenzie Room in the Huang Engineering Center. See you there!
